EU’s top diplomat lobbies US Congress to save Iran nuke pact-After meetings, Federica Mogherini says she received assurances America will remain 'compliant with the deal' under any new legislation-By AFP-TOI-8 November 2017
WASHINGTON — EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini warned Tuesday that the Iran nuclear deal can never be renegotiated, as she urged US lawmakers not to try to reopen the agreement.US President Donald Trump has told Congress that he can no longer “certify” that the 2015 accord in the US national interest, leaving its fate in the hands of skeptical senators.Mogherini, therefore came to Washington — while Trump and her opposite number Secretary of State Rex Tillerson were touring Asia — to sit down with legislators on Capitol Hill.While she insisted Brussels does not want to interfere in Washington politics, she sent a clear message that Europe opposes any new US law that would breach the terms of the deal.Senator Bob Corker, the head of the powerful Senate foreign relations committee, and his Republican colleague and rising star Senator Tom Cotton are working on such a bill.While it has not be finalized — and its supporters insist it is designed to strengthen enforcement of the Iran deal rather than to destroy it — opponents fear it will do just that.Speaking to reporters after talks with US lawmakers, Mogherini said she had sought and received reassurances that the bill would keep the United States “compliant with the deal.”“We are exchanging views with legislators on the need to make sure, before a bill is presented, that its contents does not represent a violation,” she said.In a fact sheet to explain the proposed law, the senators propose that US nuclear-related sanctions on Iran would snap back if Tehran violates “enhanced and existing restrictions.”These “enhancements” to restrictions would end so called “sunset” clauses that would see some restrictions on Tehran’s program phased out between eight and 15 years from now.But supporters of the deal argue changing these provisions of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA, signed by Iran and six world powers would itself collapse the deal.-Renegotiation not an option-Mogherini pushed back strongly on the idea that the 2015 deal, under which Iran submitted to nuclear controls in return for sanctions relief, would “sunset” at all.“The JCPOA has no sunset clause,” she said. “There are different arrangements within the JCPOA that have different durations… some will last forever.“Article Three of the agreement says that Iran will never develop a nuclear weapon, for instance.”And, she added, under the “foreseen ratification” by Iran of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s “additional protocol … certain commitments will become permanent.”“Renegotiating, is not an option,” she said, insisting Britain, France, Germany, China and Russia will not review 12 years of complex international diplomacy because of US concerns.
Gaza faces takeover by youth more extreme than Hamas: Israeli defense official-COGAT head calls for 'Gaza Marshall Plan' that would leave terror group in power, but improve economic prospects for a desperate generation-By Dov Lieber-TOI-8 November 2017
The Gaza Strip is in danger of being overrun by local youth who are even more extreme than the enclave’s current government run by the Hamas terror group, said a senior Israeli official who urged a “Marshall Plan” to improve the dismal living conditions in the embattled territory-Major General Yoav Mordechai, head of the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) unit, in an essay published October 26 by the Israeli Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), said that while Hamas is problematic for Israel, a far bleaker scenario remains around the corner if Gaza’s youth don’t see a chance for positive change.The Hamas terror group took control of the Strip in 2007 in a violent battle with rival Palestinian faction Fatah, but since then it has been unable to lift “the Gaza population from the confines of poverty and neglect that they have long endured,” he wrote.The United Nations believes that Gaza is in such bad shape environmentally speaking, due to power and water crises, that it could be uninhabitable by 2020.Mordechai emphasized that a new generation of Gazans are more educated than any past generation but face the worst employment prospects than in any other time.Unemployment in Gaza stands at 44 percent, but is 1.5 times higher among college-educated youth, he wrote. Only around 17% of those entering the labor market in 2016 were able to find work, about 3,000 people, out of a population of 17,000, he further noted.This generation, he wrote, is liable to perceive the Hamas government as a regime that does “not understand or speak its language and is not committed to provide for its needs,” and may seek to engender change itself.After years of radicalization under Hamas combined with the feeling that militant action is the only way to engender change, Mordechai argued “that if something is not done that will bring about a genuine change in the Gazans’ bleak perception of reality, a situation may well arise whereby far more extremist entities, even compared to the Hamas movement, might overthrow the government in Gaza.”He said the youth have not yet organized, but such a process could occur swiftly and without warning.The solution he imagined is a “Marshall Plan for the Gaza Strip,” referring to the post World War Two program in which the United States government pumped billions of dollars into Western European countries in order ensure political stability by reinvigorating their economies.Mordechai calls for a process “to turn Gaza into a developing environment, with advanced industrial zones, tourist areas, innovative transportation solutions, and infrastructures that will meet the population’s needs.”“The plan should include extensive international initiatives and investments that will enable rehabilitation and authentic change in Gaza – in terms of mindset and economics alike – without Hamas being able to oppose or obstruct the plan,” he wrote, adding that the plan should also take security arrangements into account, such as constraining the military growth of Hamas.The plan should be carried out in such a way that “it would not be advantageous for any of the parties involved to oppose the process, and would be expedient for them to welcome it with open arms,” he wrote.Hamas, he noted, would likely be the primary winner of such a process, as it would retain its control over Gaza.The Israeli defense official did note that the recent Egyptian-backed Palestinian reconciliation deal, which allows for the Palestinian Authority to resume control of the Gaza Strip by December 1, raises a number of questions.Chiefly among these is what role the PA should play in the Gaza Marshall Plan.Mordechai argues this should be debated in the political track, as the PA may demand the process be extended into the West Bank before going along.
Iraqi VP calls Iran-backed militias his nation’s top threat-Country's highest-ranking Sunni leader calls for US assistance in combatting rise of Tehran-backed Shiite forces in IS liberated areas-By Stephen Braun-TOI-NOV 8,17
WASHINGTON (AP) — Iraq’s highest-ranking Sunni leader said Tuesday the growing influence of Iranian-backed Shiite militias looms as the nation’s most pressing future security threat and called for bolstering US military aid to Sunni forces.In Washington for talks this week with Trump administration officials and congressional leaders, Iraqi Vice President Osama al-Nujaifi is hoping the administration will deliver on pledges to counter Iran’s growing influence inside Iraq and across the Middle East.Al-Nujaifi is one of Iraq’s three vice presidents, and his brother heads a prominent Iraqi defense faction. Both have been represented in Washington by the same lobbyist employed last year by Michael Flynn, President Donald Trump’s first national security adviser. In February, Trump fired Flynn, who is now under investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller.In remarks Tuesday at the US Institute of Peace, al-Nujaifi described Shiite militias in Iraq operating as a “parallel army” that could divide the nation even as Iraq’s military is driving out IS fighters with the aid of American troops.The Iranian-backed factions “have gained a lot of power and maybe they can pose more problems,” al-Nujaifi said.In an interview with The Associated Press and in an earlier draft of his remarks, al-Nujaifi was more explicit about his interest in securing military aid for Iraqi Sunni factions overmatched by Iran’s equipping and training of Shiite militias.“More attention should be paid to the strengthening of military capabilities of the people of former ISIS-occupied areas, training and enabling them to defend their areas,” his speech says, according to a draft provided to the AP. He was referring to mostly Sunni areas recently liberated from IS fighters.Al-Nujaifi suggested deploying more American military forces. The Pentagon has authorized more than 2,000 additional troops to Iraq since President Donald Trump took office in January, but analysts aren’t expecting any new, significant surge.“I presume his pleas will be met with collective eye-rolling,” said Michael Knights, a Mideast analyst at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.On Tuesday, Al-Nujaifi made the case for disarming the Shiite militias. In a nod to Iraq’s 2018 national election and his likely role in it, he said a new coalition party knitting together Sunni, Shiite, Kurdish and Christian factions would stand the best chance of acting as a bulwark against the militias. Iraq’s current government is already a coalition, though often wracked with political turmoil.In his interview with AP, al-Nujaifi recalled American military aid and training for Sunni tribal militias that fought against al-Qaida in Iraq a decade ago, saying Sunni forces again “need the ground support of the United States.”Two years of lobbying in Washington didn’t win much support for al-Nujaifi’s brother, Atheel. After fleeing Mosul when IS captured the city in 2014, Atheel al-Nujaifi turned to Turkey’s government for training and other aid for his Sunni militia.Atheel al-Nujaifi’s sole lobbyist last year was Washington lawyer Robert Kelley, who also worked in 2016 as general counsel for a consulting firm run by Flynn, a former top US general who became a Trump adviser.Kelley also helped set up Osama al-Nujaifi’s meetings this week with Trump administration officials.In October of last year, Kelley registered Flynn Intel Group with Congress for its lobbying on behalf of a Turkish-owned company, Inovo BV. But in March, Flynn’s firm abruptly filed instead as a foreign agent with the Justice Department, acknowledging that its work likely aided Turkey’s government. That filing is now under scrutiny as part of Mueller’s probe.
In recording, John Kerry says Israeli government doesn’t want peace-Ex-secretary of state says Israel ignoring threat posed by diplomatic stalemate, warns of future Palestinian violence-By Alexander Fulbright-TOI-7 November 2017
Former US secretary of state John Kerry blamed the Israeli government’s resistance to the establishment of a Palestinian state for harming the prospects of a peace deal, while warning Israel could face a future violent Palestinian uprising if there was no progress in peace talks.In recordings published Tuesday by Channel 10, America’s former top diplomat can be heard praising the Palestinian Authority’s commitment to nonviolence following a wave of terror attacks beginning in the fall of 2015, which he said has been ignored by Israelis due to right-wing configuration of the current government.“The Palestinians have done an extraordinary job of remaining committed to nonviolence. And in fact when the [knife] intifada took place they delivered non-violence in the West Bank,” Kerry is heard saying in the recording.“This is overlooked by the general [Israeli] population because it is not a topic of discussion. Why? Because the majority of the cabinet currently in the current Israeli government has publicly declared they are not ever for a Palestinian state,” he adds.Channel 10 said the recording was made at a conference in Dubai in the past year attended by Middle East leaders and Israel’s Joint (Arab) List chief Ayman Odeh. The television channel also said opposition leader Isaac Herzog (Zionist Union) addressed the conference by video.It was not clear if Kerry was aware he was being recorded or if the segments released were his full remarks.Kerry warned in the recording that frustrations among Palestinians could boil over into violence and that the current status quo cannot last.“If you see 40,000 kids marching up to the wall everyday with signs saying ‘give us are rights,’ I mean, I don’t think Palestine is going to be immune forever to the civil rights movements that have swept other nations in the world,” he says.Despite this, Kerry said Israel is ignoring the threat posed by the diplomatic stalemate. “That is not leadership,” says Kerry.“If you don’t have leaders who don’t want to make peace, if the equation doesn’t change, I’ll be amazed if within the next 10 years if we don’t see some young [Palestinian] leader come along who says we have tried non-violence for the last 30 years and look, it hasn’t gotten us anything,” he says.In light of the lack of peace prospects, Kerry says in the recording that Herzog may present Israel’s best hope for reaching a deal with the Palestinians. He also praised a number of former Israeli leaders, saying their examples should be followed in pursuing negotiations. Herzog has since lost the leadership of his party to Avi Gabbay.“You gotta have a willingness to make peace. If there is a willingness to make peace — [Ehud] Olmert, [Ehud] Barak, [Yitzhak] Rabin, [Shimon] Peres — people indicated how you do it,” Kerry says.Kerry also detailed a number of steps taken to ensure Israel’s security following the establishment of a Palestinian state, which he said included King Abdullah of Jordan’s agreement to host Israeli troops at an airport in the kindom and the “pre-deployment of weapons” in the West Bank. He also says in the recording Israel would have the right to respond to threats in the West Bank within minutes if the Palestinians failed to act.In response to the recordings, the Prime Minister’s Office told Channel 10 Netanyahu would continue to safeguard Israel’s security and national interests, regardless of any pressure by “those who tried to prod [Israel] to make dangerous concessions and failed.”It also placed the blame for the impasse in peace talks on the Palestinians “refusal to recognize Israel within any borders.”“It is unfortunate John Kerry still doesn’t get this,” the PMO said.Beginning in 2013, Kerry led a major round of peace talks, which ultimately collapsed in April 2014. The Palestinians in part blamed Israeli settlement construction for the failure of the negotiations, while Israel slammed the PA President Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah party for agreeing to a reconciliation deal with the Hamas terror group.Despite the failure, Kerry again tried to revive negotiations, proposing a regional peace plan for the renewal of negotiations toward a two-state solution and recognition of Israel as a Jewish state last year that culminated in a secret meeting on February 21, 2016, between Netanyahu, Kerry, Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi and Jordan’s King Abdullah, the Haaretz daily reported in February.The proposal, however, was rejected by Netanyahu.Prior to leaving his post, Kerry gave a speech outlining his vision for future peace talks in which he excoriated Israel over its settlement policies, saying they endanger the possibility of reaching a two-state solution.
Syria to join Paris climate pact, leaving US only nation to opt out-Representative from war-torn country declares intention to sign 196-nation treaty during UN conference in Germany-By AFP-TOI-7 November 2017
BONN, Germany — Syria said at UN climate talks in Bonn on Tuesday that it would join the Paris Agreement, leaving the United States as the only nation to say it will remain outside the landmark treaty.“We are going to join the Paris Agreement,” the Syrian delegate, speaking in Arabic, said during a plenary session at the 196-nation talks, according to Safa Al Jayoussi of the IndyAct NGO, who was monitoring the session.The United States ratified the 2015 pact but US President Donald Trump announced earlier this year that he would pull out, saying the pact did not serve US interests.“It is our understanding that the government of Syria announced today their intent to join the Paris Agreement,” Nick Nuttall, the spokesman for the UN climate body, told AFP.Other parties at the 12-day negotiations, tasked with elaborating and implementing the agreement, welcomed the news.“Syria joining the Paris Agreement will be a good thing,” South Africa’s chief negotiator Maesela Kekana told AFP.War-torn Syria would be the 197th country to sign on to the climate pact, which vows to hold global warming to “well below” two degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit).Openly isolated on the climate issue at G-7 and G-20 meetings earlier this year, the United States said it intended to withdraw “unless the president can identify terms that are more favourable to American businesses, workers, and taxpayers.”The Trump administration has not said what those terms might be.“This means Trump is in splendid isolation — no one wants to be in his company,” said Alden Meyer, a veteran climate analyst at the Washington-based Union of Concerned Scientists.“With Syria on board, now the entire world is resolutely committed to advancing climate action -– all save one country,” said Paula Caballero, director for climate change at the World Resources Institute.“This should make the Trump administration pause and reflect on their ill-advised announcement about withdrawing from the Paris Agreement.”Signed in the French capital in December 2015, the treaty entered into force on November 4, 2016.According to the terms, no country can formally submit their intent to withdraw until three years after the date of entry into force.It will then take one year to fully withdraw, meaning the earliest the United States could officially withdraw is the day after the 2020 election.
Abbas discusses Trump’s peace plan with Saudi King-Gulf monarch says his country will continue to support Palestinians in international arena and work for independent Palestinian state-By Dov Lieber-TOI-7 November 2017
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Monday discussed the intra-Palestinian reconciliation process and an American plan to restart Israeli-Palestinians peace talks with Saudi King Salman in Riyadh, according to the PA’s official news agency.Abbas informed the Saudi king of “the latest developments regarding the Palestinian issue and American efforts to move the peace process forward,” Wafa reported.US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and chief Middle East adviser, Jared Kushner, paid a secret visit to Saudi Arabia last month in his latest effort to restart Mideast peace talks.Despite many meetings between US officials from the current administration with Israelis and Palestinians, Washington has yet to clarify how it intends to return both sides to the negotiating table since talks broke down in 2014.The Wafa report added that Abbas briefed the king on “developments in the national reconciliation process to end [Palestinian] division.”Abbas’s Fatah party, which dominates the Palestinian Authority, is currently in negotiations with Hamas to bring the PA’s rule back to the Gaza Strip by December 1. Hamas took control of the Strip in a violent conflict with Fatah in 2007.Abbas’s visit to Riyadh comes after Hamas last week handed the PA control of all the Gaza Strip border crossing, in a test of a reconciliation accord signed last month under the auspices of Egypt.The Wafa report said the two leaders also discussed ways to develop their “excellent” bilateral relations.The Saudi king, the report added, affirmed his government’s long-standing support for the Palestinians in international forums, and its commitment to provide “all that is required to bring about the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.”Abbas is expected to meet with Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman later today.Abbas was unexpectedly summoned to Riyadh on Monday, just as the Gulf kingdom was at the height of a major crackdown on members of the royal family.On Saturday, Saudi Arabia’s heir to the throne oversaw an unprecedented wave of arrests of dozens of the country’s most powerful princes, military officers, businessmen and government ministers. Some of them are potential rivals or critics of the crown prince, whose purported anti-corruption sweep sent shockwaves across the kingdom Sunday as he further consolidated power.Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia has stepped up its rhetoric against Iran, saying that Iranian missiles in Yemen “may constitute an act of war.”Saudi Arabia and Iran are currently locked in a battle for regional hegemony, and blame each other for spreading extremism throughout the Middle East.The Saudis also said on Monday that Lebanon is considered to have declared war on the Gulf Kingdom, due to political hegemony of the Iranian-backed terror group Hezbollah in the small Mediterranean country.Senior Hamas officials last week met and spoke with Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah, and the two terror groups have said they share the same goals.In recent months, Hamas has publicly flaunted its burgeoning ties with Iran, and the Islamic Republic has in turn sworn to increase its military backing of the Gaza-based terror group.On Saturday, a high-profile Hamas delegation visited Tehran for the second time in recent weeks, in order to attend a memorial service for the father of Qassim Suleimani, the commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard’s elite Quds Force.On Monday, the London-based Pan-Arab newspaper Al-Rai quoted Palestinian sources who said that Abbas had been summoned to Riyadh so the Saudis could ask him to join an anti-Hezbollah coalition.Also on Monday, Abbas met with Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi in Sharm el-Sheikh, who said he remains committed to bringing Israelis and Palestinians back to the negotiating table.
